The Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science at UCSF is seeking applicants with demonstrated experience in working effectively with individuals from a range of life experiences and backgrounds and who are motivated to provide equitable clinical care, teaching practices and research activity.

The Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science at UCSF is dedicated to providing evidence-based, patient-centered physical therapy services for the community, and to educating scholarly, socially sensitive clinicians, educators, and researchers who will lead the profession into the future.

We foster an inclusive environment in clinical care, education, and research while building the scientific base of clinical practice with an emphasis on equity, quality, accessibility, and efficiency. Our team thrives through diversity across all spectrums including ethnicity, ability level, sexual and gender identities, religious and spiritual freedoms, and all other demographics.

We welcome individuals committed to advancing equity through mentoring students, serving a wide variety of communities, conducting inclusive research, and promoting collaboration.
